In-person resident didactics are traditionally limited to the faculty within a single institution. Tele-education efforts have been implemented in neurology to various degrees historically, but the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has necessitated a broad and immediate overhaul in neurology didactic training. To respond to the immediate need for resident didactics, we created a rapid onset, volunteer tele-education didactic series publicized on online forums to the American Academy of Neurology A.B. Baker Section via Synapse and the Women Neurologists Group via Facebook. We describe how, with just 1 week of lead time, we created an ongoing neurology lecture series featuring faculty from across the country lecturing on a diverse range of neurology topics. The series is ongoing and draws upwards of 120 residents per lecture. Tele-education offers unique benefits to enhance the education of all neurology trainees everywhere.
传统上，面对面的住院医师教学仅限于单一机构内的教师。历史上，神经科已经在不同程度上实施了远程教育，但 2019 年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行需要对神经科教学培训进行广泛而立即的改革。为了满足住院医师教学的迫切需求，我们创建了一个快速启动的志愿者远程教育教学系列，通过 Synapse 在网上论坛向美国神经病学学会 A.B. Baker 分会发布，并通过 Facebook 向妇女神经病学家小组发布。我们描述了如何仅用 1 周的准备时间，创建了一个持续的神经科讲座系列，邀请来自全国各地的教师讲授各种神经科主题。该系列正在进行中，每场讲座吸引了多达 120 名住院医师。远程教育提供了独特的优势，可以提高各地所有神经科受训者的教育水平。
